Hey gang, if you're seeing this for the 2nd time, it's because the 1st upload wasn't showing in HD. Here's the HD version. Thanks for watching!!!
Loved the tune Mike!
Mike, what speakers were you running the amp through?
@@trixlee5102 For this I was using my IR's bighairyprofiles.com/products/big-hairy-guitars-impulse-response. For the song, it's a blend of V30 and Greenback, and for the talking section it's all greenback. Both are from a Marshall 1984B Bass 412 cab
epic song and tones! Would rock here again
3rd Power amps are criminally underrated. Dylana has been doing some great things and it’s good to see a channel as legit as yours putting a spotlight on some of the great 3rd Power products. Great intro jam as well.
they are criminally over priced
@@betterthandeadohyea4500 A fantastic hand built in the USA amp with almost every option you can think of is totally not criminally overpriced. Expensive yes but I don't hear anyone complaining about Matchless pricing.
@@betterthandeadohyea4500that's a Friedman. Pcb, overcompressed shitty sound for 4k
Holy crap! Dylana has knocked this one out of the park! What a killer, killer amp.
Man! I had been looking at the Kitchen Sink head for the longest and these amps are still fresh in my mind.
Sounds ridiculously great! Excellent demo!!
Reminded of my old THD flexi which would take all sorts of power amp tubes. Miss that amp.
Phenomenal playing as usual. Killer demo song!
So ridiculously talented!! Love it!
Amp sounded amazing in all configurations. Nice.
I just found a great used combo version of this and honestly, bought it based in no small part to this demo and your honest thoughts.
You’re one of my most trusted reviewers I watch, you’re likable, smart and have excellent, really exceptional communication skills, thanks and keep up the great work!
Sounds Gloria! Brilliant playing. 🙌🙌
Maaaan that demo was crazy sick. I love your mixes and playing.
Thanks buddy!
This is incredible. The tones are magical. Michael your playing is ridiculously Awesome. Composition is off the charts. Smashed it maestro. I love this. Your Reb Beach Suhr could also be on my list with the Riot Humbucker. Beautiful!!!
These amp’s freaking are ridiculous! Great playing as always!😮
Wow, love this amp and vid. Sounds amazing
love that bass tone! 😍
Dylana makes great stuff, love to see you demoing it.
I was floored by the Kitchen Sink. This is a K.O.!
Hi Michael, the intro of this video sounds so damn good,come on, you're such an awesome guitar player! By the way, i've see so many of your videos and they're all great. Thanks for sharing this with all of us.
😊🎸😊🎸
Wow. Tone city. And great playing.
I got a Kitchen Sink. I highly recommend 3rd Power amps.
Very cool amp and sounds versatile.
Every time ive heard a 3rd power amp it sounded great, theyre very tastefully voiced and sit really well in mixes from the demos ive heard, the kitchen sink is a bucket list amp for me for sure
Very, very nice! Perfect studio amp for sure.
Awesome tune!!
As always Mike, it sounds fantastic in your hands 😎 that Shabat is so nice too 👌👌
This was an awesome video!
I have to check out this amp. Sounds incredible and I am really digging the versatility. 🤘
Woah! That Tele-looking thing is rad
That's Pretty Badass!! I think the the name Dirty Sink says it all!!
Appreciate this video!
far out, your playing, arrangement, mixing etc is epic. amp sounds great too.
Thank you! 🤘 Much appreciated!
All those tones, clean and dirty, really sound great Michael. I think you should do a Kemper pack with this amp.
Cool amp, lots of useful "addressments". Would surely make a great tool for club gigging or studio work.
Nice picking too, Michael. Really enjoyed the opening track, thanks.
Stepping it up!
Can't wait for a Kemper profile pack for all the amp settings that you've played on, really cool sounds w/o the need for boost or gain pedals.
OM F'n G ! I've just been eying this bad boy. A whole lotta amp there. Lovin the Kitchen Sink as well.
Mike, I've heard a lot of great tones on your channel, but these tones rank right at the top. It sounds like Dylana has made an excellent amp!!
Fuck, that's a hell of a demo and playing. Unreal.
Killin' it !!
That demo song absolutely slayed......and then I realised there was also a review.
Win/Win!
:). Thanks Dave!
The Chandler GAV19T has a similar bias control for V1. This is a very nice evolution of the concept.
That demo was sick, made crave a tall glass of OJ haha. Please do a ToneX capture pack for this amp
....i love your playing... and reviews... this amp seems to be really really cool also ....thx
Nice to see advanced features on an amp that are truly useful. That bias switching is very cool and nice to see the smart foot switch. Reminds me of the VHT footswitches where you could assign the graphic etc with a channel change with the mini switch. But even better is to see an amp with bells and whistles that has a killer tone. Many multi feature, high dollar amps that while they may have midi and voicing switches up the wahzoo, seem to forget how they sound is what matters the most and you just a generic clean and characterless high gain. I love and resent 3rd power because the amps sound great but my wallet can’t get there…lol
That foot switch bussing is badical. Amp sounds killer.
If there was any doubt in anyone's mind this is a channel for 80s players here we have it, badical. I haven't even used that word in 20yrs😂
When you stare at me with the strong jaw while playing it’s scary and I feel I must buy this or You will come to my house and hit me! As always great video and great tones. There is a lot to unwrap on these amps you do a great job of getting to just about everything. Cheers Michael.
what cool amp
I really wish they had a 100watt version, also it would be great if there was a extra jcm 800 gain switch. I love this amp as it is too. Awesome
Terrific. And this coming from a Marshall SV20H owner.
blows most if not all of any amps ive heard power wise, wow fantastic amp
I'm just here to hear you play.
That amp is super cool. Somebody told me yesterday about this brand. No I must try.
You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes "you" get what you need. As a hybrid it's an option as is a Fractal, Kemper etc. In a studio a tool. Live it would be impractical. But I think what we wish for and what we get are shown here. Sure, I'd love one of each of the essential food groups of amps at home, in a studio or if I had a road crew and tech's to gig with. For obvious reasons a Fender isn't a Marshall isn't a Vox as much as a blackface isn't a tweed and JTM isn't a JMP. Practically, the maintenance and volume of classic vintage versions is a bridge and wallet too far and the twain will never meet. Having said that, Michael consistently offers viable solutions and applications in all settings. His use and application of Friedman amps is testimony to his experience, playing and ear which are exceptional. This reminds me of my first electric guitar which was a Godin. It was versatile in a cover band, but when playing with any other guitarist it wasn't a Strat, Tele, Les Paul, acoustic or synth guitar and sat nowhere. After selling it, I moved to what I could afford and what I wanted. Like Indiampa Jones and the Holy Grail remember to "choose wisely" or be a mere mortal who uses 'the' right tool for the job or compromises with close-ish but doesn't die unless they paid too much. :-) When gigging most of the people we play for wouldn't care or know. Best.
Shabat!
The Amp is Amazing
Only if it Was $1500 Cheaper , Good Lord .
That Demo Was Off The Hook , Your Guitar Skills Just Keep Getting Better
And All Those Different Parts To That Well Composed Composition You Crafted Was Killer .
Awesome Dude !!
Awesome Channel !!
Play on Maestro
That Was a Stellar 🎸🎸
If only I could give you more than 1 thumbs up MN..... always multiple tups !
Is that Reb Beach’s Suhr? Haha 😆. The one David Coverdale, I believe it was, said looks like a coffee table!
Please demo a Kitchen Sink 6VEL, and then please make Kemper profiles of both!! ROCK ON!
Warm and juicy is good 👺
After watching yesterday didn’t get a chance to comment. I love the concept, but have to compliment your playing. I know you create music for your ninja stuff but was wondering if you were open to composing lessons ?
Need a review on the Shabat. It's s**t hot.
Now Available on HD!
What brand is this black telecaster? Sound ridiculously amazing 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks. That's my new Shabat. I never thought I'd buy a single P90 guitar, but as soon as I picked it up, I was done!
@@BigHairyGuitars I’ve been thinking in something to much similar to this guitar guitar 🔥🔥 thank you Michael
I liked it with the 6l6 myself. Cool amp. How many watts?
Depends on the tubes but I think 6L6 is 35 watts. It’s pretttttt loud
I like the warm sound 😮
Are the tubes in any way similar with 6v6?
Kemper profiles of this amp..?
Hi Michael, what cab / IR?
bighairyprofiles.com/products/big-hairy-guitars-impulse-response. I used my V30 Greenback blend for the song, and 2 Greenbacks for the demo part. Both IR's of a Marshall 1960B 👍
Nice video as always. They make good amps but are overpriced. There are tons and tons of opts out there, That DONT want 5 grande for an amp. Their price is at the high end of the spectrum, and while SOME of their sounds are too, not many people use these amps.3rd power is not popular to the gen public BECAUSE of the pricing, and not on tour because there are better options.
And it only costs $4000, that's a steal!
Actually, it's on introductory pricing for $3199 (head version), $3499 for the 112 combo. But rounding up is always cool ;)
sounds amazing, but 3499 is just too much. There are better sounding amps for less, that while the bias switch on the fly is unique, is it necessary?
Hi Edward. Yes, I agree, it is premiumly priced. But it is fully hand wired on turret boards. The workmanship is there. The Bias switch does bring a lot to the party.
@@BigHairyGuitars its cool to switch it, but its probably a set it and be done for a gig, which you could do by just biasing any other amp anyway. I believe in innovation, and this is innovative, but pricing out 90% of gigging musicians just is a hard pill to swallow.
@@edwardgrassel872 I totally get you. You're not wrong at all, but for some people having a 100% hand wired made in the USA amp is important. Certainly if it was an PCB import amp, it would cost 1/2 as much, but that's not really what 3rd Power is about. Like Ferrari or Porsche.
@edward grassel in terms of power tubes. Yes you would set it and forget it. I cant think of another amp that not only allows power amp tube bias. But preamp section bias. This is unique to the dirty 6vel. Most other amps will have the ability to bias the power-amp tubes, but not swappable between different tube types (el34, 6v6, 5881, 6l6 etc).
The power tubes are bias-able from the rear panel with a pot and test points.. the front panel switch is for preamp. So if you were to add cascaded gain, the colder pre-amp bias would help keep things under control, tight and percussive.
@@BigHairyGuitars Agree 100% Michael - I have a Citizen Gain CSR from Dylana and it's simply amazing. They are overbuilt masterpieces that will last for 30 years. Great Fender cleans and has the JTM/Plexi/Modern second channel. I rarely get past the JTM as it has great feel. Superb video!
I just stumbled across this video, and I must say that as someone who has massive musical appreciation but absolutely no musical abilities, that intro gave me a humongous boner. To have that kind of talent is freakin' awesome.
